Arm, the company behind the semiconductor design for much of the IoT (and all of the worlds’ smartphones) has announced three projects to help make developing for the internet of things faster, easier, and potentially more secure. It’s announcing all three under the grand name of Arm Total Solutions for IoT.
First, Arm will provide a set of pre-defined hardware capabilities common to the IoT chip manufacturers called Arm Corstone. Then, Arm is launching an abstraction layer for its IP based on Cornerstone that will reside in the cloud. This lets developers access the chip virtually before it exists in hardware. It will also launch Project Centuari, which will let developers use cloud-native software across all of many variations of IoT chips.
This is the second time Arm has tried to solve the many challenges associated with fragmentation in the IoT world. The first time it tried was back in 2014 with the mbed OS. Back then, Arm was trying to unify the many real-time operating systems in use across microcontrollers used in the IoT. That didn’t take.
